CHENNAI, India – February 17, 2014 , /PRNewswire/—Ramco Systems, an enterprise software product company focused on delivering ERP, HCM and Aviation on Cloud, Tablets and Smart phones today announced that its comprehensive HR & Talent Management solution, Ramco HCM on Cloud (Human Capital Management) will now be available with GPS (Global Positioning System) and NFC (Near Field Communication) Support. With this new feature, Ramco HCM will offer its customers the option to record NFC based time and attendance to authenticate, trace and interact with employees at various levels.

In an increasingly changing business environment where a sizeable number of employees are on the move addressing business needs in remote locations, the need to capture employee attendance and integrating it back to payroll has become a challenge. Also businesses are unable to get complete visibility of workforce distribution to enable them to plan resource allocation effectively.

Commonly used attendance mapping systems such as Biometric and Swipe cards are limited in scope, high on investment and do not scale to the needs of a geographically dispersed workforce. Ramco HCM with its GPS + NFC based attendance management system is aimed at addressing this pain point of an organization. Watch a Video to see how this feature works.

Talking about the latest feature, Mr. Virender Aggarwal, CEO, Ramco Systems, adds, “Ramco is driving a move towards enabling a ‘Digital Enterprise’ and with Internet of Things becoming mainstream, we are using the tectonic shift in technology to drive business benefits in a manner not thinkable earlier. With the emergence of a young breed of millennial workforce, HR Managers are forced to relook at their current systems. With the launch of GPS and NFC based attendance system, we are providing enterprises with a new technology to address the attendance, billing and payroll needs of a complex workforce.”
